The publisher, Springer, provides detailed instructions for contributing authors here . The authors who use LaTeX should use the section "Manuscript Preparation in LaTeX" and follow the link "For contributed books, proceedings, and similar (zip, 669 Kb)" to download the relevant package, titled svmult.zip . The authors who prefer to use Word should choose the section "Manuscript Preparation in Word". In addition, the Instruction Pack for Contributing Authors will be sent to all QSCP-XIII participants by Piotr Piecuch, and can also be downloaded by clicking here.

Contributors should send an electronic copy of their manuscript along with a cover letter containing the names and e-mail addresses of at least three referees to Piotr Piecuch at , with a copy to Jean Maruani at . All electronic submissions should be marked "QSCP-XIII Proceedings", both in the cover letter and in the subject line of the e-mail message. The electronic copy of the manuscript should consist of all files used for the manuscript production and be sent in the form of the preferably compressed archive (.tar, .gz, or .zip file) along with the PDF file containing the complete manuscript, which the editors will need for refereeing purposes. The cover letter may be sent as an attachment (PDF file) or a plain text in the e-mail message. At a later stage, all contributors will need to fill in an official Consent to Publish (CTP) form which will be provided in due time.

The publisher, Springer, has agreed to provide complimentary copies of the QSCP-XIII proceedings to the principal authors of contributions accepted for publication and at least 10 pages in length. Further details will be provided later.
